The Chase

In this project I learned how getting many different shots of the same action really adds to the overall interest of the viewer, and learned that time management is a necessity, especially when working with other people. I will try to work faster without reducing the quality of my work, and hope to use communication to improve my video drastically. Collaboration was a little different due to the increase in individuals involved. With 3 people came more ideas, and a little conflict! I believe in the next project my group should try to compromise and listen to each others' ideas to see if we can incorporate what is best for the video. I hope to keep making more videos, because the whole editing and filming process is awesome! You get to talk with other people and work together to achieve a common goal, which is a lot of fun to do.

AB Sequence

Over the duration of this assignment, I learned the importance of stressing the flow of your video, from scene to scene. I also learned how to slow down or speed up the video to make for a more dramatic effect. I learned the shortcut of shift z and it was very helpful to my project. You need to make sure all of the scenes look together and move smoothly from one shot to the next. I will ensure that my future projects move in a fluid motion, trying to make minimal or no jump cuts. Collaboration was extremely important to this project, because of the length, time, and roles needed to complete this assignment. With 2 people, you can have one person shoot the video, another person act. I will use collaboration later to be more effective I'm my video making, and hope to continue making awesome creations!

Sequence

1. Extra Close Up Shot-A filming distance where the object takes up the whole frame.
2. Close Up Shot-A shot where you can see only a person's head and shoulders.
3. Medium Shot-A person's waist up is shown, along with whatever they are holding.
4. Over The Shoulder-Film as if you are looking over the person as they are doing an action, with what they are doing in view.
5. Wide Shot-A shot that includes all of the person, but doesn't show the whole scene.
6. Extra Wide Shot-A shot where the whole scene is included.

I enjoyed learning more about Final Cut Pro and working with the new cameras. I found new ways to cut and put together video clips. I used new transitions, and had fun using the free music from ISM Films. I have learned how to publish, export, and sequence shots with the editing software. I enjoyed the simplicity but effective 6-shot sequence.
I will use the 6-shot sequence later and the cutting of different video clips.

My Personality Type

My Personality Type

My personality type was calculated to be an ISTJ, which is a quiet, serious, but dependable person. It says that I am responsible and work hard while staying organized. I was 1% away from being an INTJ, that is described as the scientist personality. INTJs are very independent individual who is extremely analytical, constantly studying the world around them. I have the same personality types as Isaac Newton, Steven Hawking, George Washington and Dwight D. Eisenhower.

I feel that both personality types fit me well, but INTJ describes me better than ISTJ. I'm not very traditional, and don't like to do things by the book as much. I enjoy experimenting and researching new ideas about the world. My personality type fits how I interact with others. I am quiet and study people, not speaking as much  as others would. I do not enjoy being in a large group of people, just a few friends here and there. I work hard and try to be perfect, and sometimes I would describe myself as a perfectionist.

When on a team, I tend to be the one who comes up with good ideas and finds answers easily. I have to initiate all chores around the house and make sure my siblings help me get them done. I take the lead when needed, and get the job done as quickly and efficiently as I can. People will perceive me as quiet and boring, but I am just unsure of strangers and tend to watch how they act to assume their personality
